Then go become a mercenary for any faction. Help them fight a bit then switch to a new faction. Try them all out and see who you like. The stuff you get from loot will make up for the cost of your army. Wait until you’re like rank 4 or 5 clan before declaring as a vassal.
To be a ruler without waiting, bet on prisión breaks, bribing, bartering and doing quests and favors and most importantly, RELEASE the nobles after a fight, eventually you will be able to ask them to join your kingdom (however to have a kingdom you will have to take either a castle or a city and then talk to a follower, them be ready for war
This will require you to have at least Clan Rank 3, 100 soldiers under your command, and to own at least one settlement . If you went the Imperial route, you will specifically need to own a
This is what good roleplaying looks like. Indeed characters need to have several layers to their personality to feel alive and believable. To make them truly memorable characters, there should be conflict between those differing aspects, leading to self-doubt, regret, hypocrisy and many more truly human qualities.

To embark on the mercenary path, head to a city or castle within the territory of the faction you wish to join. Within these settlements, you’ll find keeps where lords congregate.

Bannerlord is developed and marketed as a sandbox game.

A heavily-garrisoned town will count for around 500 troops including the militia, and AI kingdoms also get around 200-300 extra troops per clan and mercenary company. Since the player only has their personal clan before becoming a kingdom, it's unlikely the player will ever start with more than 1800-2500 when they declare their new kingdom.
